UTD Fun Facts
Growing Backwards
UTD started as a grad-level institution. In 1975, undergrads arrived on campus. The first freshmen followed 15 years later.
Undefeated
UTD’s football team has never lost a game and never will.
Whoosh
The Whoosh and Mini-Whoosh are Comets’ signature moves. Whoosh is the sound a comet would make in space (if there was sound in space).
Lily Pads
Quiet and comfortable spaces across campus for new mothers.
Cecil’s Sculpture
Legend has it, rubbing the head of this UTD cofounder brings good luck.
Spirit Rocks
More time-intensive than texting, painting these massive marquees is the boldest way to spread news on campus.
Our Robot Friends
When a food-delivering Tobor rolls your way, step aside and wave. It’s the Comet way!
Temoc
UTD’s out-of-this-world anthropomorphic Comet mascot first orbited campus in 1998.
Oozeball
Staff and faculty team up each year to battle students on UTD’s mud volleyball court.
Why 883?
Campus phone numbers and the Comet Cruiser bus route share the numbers 883 – UTD on your phone’s keypad.
